MarineSnow from Two Little Fishies is the first of its kind: a natural planktonic solution for filter-feeding marine invertebrates. This invertebrate food replicates the special biogenic suspended matter "marine snow" found in natural seawater. Marine snow is an important part of the food chain in marine ecosystems. Now it can be a part of home reef aquariums too! Contains natural components of marine snow, including zooplankton, phytoplankton, and particulate and dissolved organic material, and more to provide superb nutrition for filter-feeding marine invertebrates. 16 oz.

Please click on "More Information" for ingredients and nutritional information.

Directions for Use:
Refrigerate after opening. Always shake well before dosing. Maintain strong water circulation in aquarium when feeding this product, but discontinue mechanical filtration and protein skimming for an hour after feeding. Add to a strong current stream for rapid distribution in water.

Feed at least one capful per 20 gallons, per feeding. Larger doses can be added by feeding several times per day, or continuously via a drip-feed system or peristaltic dosing pump. DO NOT mix with trace elements or other chemical supplements in a dosing reservoir. MarineSnow can be mixed in an aerated dosing reservoir with live phytoplankton, rotifers, or brine shrimp, and is a suitable source of food for brine shrimp. Frequent feeding will not cause build-up of excess nutrients.

Good nutrition is a must for healthy aquarium inhabitants and a healthy ecosystem. Every year, thousands of fish become diseased or die because of malnutrition. Poor nutrition affects the fish's immune system, making them more susceptible to disease.

With the wide variety of commercial foods
available, it is sometimes difficult to determine
which type of food to feed your fish. When
choosing a food, the first thing you need to know
is what type of diet is natural to your fish.

Proper nutrition is essential for healthy aquarium inhabitants. Achieving good nutrition is more than choosing a food and feeding your fish. When selecting food for your fish, consider the dietary needs of all your fish.

Excellent
My LPS and softies LOVED this product! I don't have any SPS but all the corals I did have immediately put out their tentacles and looked healthier than ever the next day! I am going to use this product every day! Just read the directions because you need to turn off your skimmer after this product for atleast an hour!

Continue to use this just from the results I have seen.

Cant tell if it works
I used this for a while now. I target feed with it and also dose the whole tank and I never see any results with my coral. Maybe it does something.

Answer:

This product would not be a good match for fiddler crabs. The contents may settle eventually, but most of the particles are very small and dissipate from site into the water column within several seconds. This particles in this product are very small and work well for filter feeding crabs such as porcelain crabs.

Thank you for your question. Like many other foods, the MarineSnow may sink to the bottom of the tank and settle in the substrate depending on the water flow in your aquarium. If you want to control where the food lands, you may wish to use the Two Little Fishies Julian's Thing to spot feed your Fiddler Crabs. We have provided a link below to this feeding tool below.

I have a freshwater Viper shrimp and am looking for a good food to feed him. He is a filter feeder and I was wondering if this food is ok for him or if it is just made for saltwater marine life. If so what can I find for my guy to eat?
